Not sure if this is supposed to be "good news". They put the caveat that it doesn't apply to "private acts" whatever that means.
This is actually great news. It leaves door open to prosecute former presidents for the stuff they did, that I am sure does not fall under "official capacity", while also giving future presidents the authority to execute their office without worrying about any prosecutor trying to coerce them with BS.
I would say when Big Mike and his husband sodomized children in the White House, that would not be an official act.
